    I really don’t understand what they were trying to accomplish with this film

    It felt more like a fanfic film put together by some really good production people with just barely enough of a budget to put things together

    It tries to be slapstick, serious, funny and dark all at the same time while never really pulling off any of those things.

    There were also many elements and moments where I felt like I was watching the latest Star Wars movies or TV series … even the ending felt like it was lifted from Star Wars:Return of the Jedi with the death and redemption scene of Darth Vader.

    I love Star Trek for the original Scifi writing and imagination that came out of some great minds that wanted to imagine a future full of strange unusual things, ideas, events, situations and forced us all to look at ourselves and our own civilization and what we are doing … not a bunch of flashy lights, war, fighting and good guy/bad guy crap with fancy martial arts fighting. I get all that stuff elsewhere where it is done better, funnier, darker and more serious in other films.
